A Tale of Two Cities

London, 1782; 18 years after witnessing her father's death, Lucie Manette receives news that he may be alive; when her only lead, dashing Frenchman Charles Darnay, is arrested for treason, she turns to mercurial lawyer Sydney Carton for help.

Lucie and Charles journey to Paris in search of her long-lost father; the two grow closer, until Charles' past rears its head; back in London, Lucie is drawn to the troubled Sydney Carton; Thérèse Defarge plots revenge against the Marquis.

As Lucie builds a new life for her father in London, Sydney and Charles face off for her affection; she loves both but must choose one; the Revolution arrives in Paris; after a battle in the streets, vengeful Thérèse makes a discovery in La Bastille.

As the Revolution descends into bloodshed, Charles is arrested in Paris; desperate to save him, Lucie turns to Sydney Carton, but at Charles' trial, a revelation changes everything; as Thérèse seeks vengeance, Sydney weighs up an epic sacrifice.
